Just purchased these RB CCBs & getting replacement rims to further lower rotational mass. This will be awesome - these iron brakes & 31# rims are boat anchors. Thanks to the excellent CCB brake summaries by many on this forum - jewels of knowledge man! ;o)
Hi Zack. I'm buying a 2019 GT350 for my friend (tomorrow).
4,220 Miles
Single owner
No wrecks (or dents or scratches)
Can you confirm:
1) I can buy a FordMoCo Warranty (Premium) from you, and if so,
2) you can email me ([email protected]) or respond to this with a cost matrix
Thanks...
Cool....I'll look into Signature's offering if I decide the 345 width. Surprising it might fit w/an OEM rim so again, thanks for the heads up Champale.
My 350 has 852rwhp and the 305s are just inadequate. As to the weight, I'm upgrading to forged Mg rims, lightweight ceramic brakes, lighter clutch flywheel, & a CF driveshaft soooo....we'll be good. As to tramlining, that will be addressed with the revised rims and tire combo coming (you may...
Tony, got it - thanks! I saw a separate (2020?) thread on Shelby doing a widebody conversion and it looked pretty darn good. It also permitted 355s (on 21" rims). Accordingly, I may send my 350 to Shelby America as part of a brake/rim/tire upgrade trip.
Thanks for the rim/tire feedback....I...
Yup, agree in the non width uniformity amongst tires. However, for primarily street use, the additional ~1.6" net rubber contact patch will help under hard acceleration.....the car has 852 rwhp. I'll also be dropping ~115 lbs in rotational mass with the replacement rims and carbon brakes as part...
Thanks for top down pic. That is entirely acceptable IMHO.....does not poke out too much. Exactly what I was looking for per my question. Cool......325s will help a bit with acceleration traction.
This is good info but your point wrt rubbing is also key. Perhaps a GT500 (CF rim optioned) owner can confirm if the 325s have any chassis rubbing issues (I could be wrong, but I don't think there is any GT500 to GT350 rear chassis fitment differences so if a GT500 20x11.5 wearing 325s "fits"...
I'm looking to replace my OEM 31 lbs GT350 rims with either forged magnesium or CF and was curious if the GT500 CF stock rears accomodate a 325 width. Anyone know? Thanks much.
Ya, I'm not a "blue" guy either but that metallic light blue has grown on me. Love the, "housewife color" comment. LOL! Oddly, my wife dislikes blue (cars) & I'm the Knucklehead that likes this particular shade - just looks good on that GT500. 12 miles on it?! ...and I thought mine was low with...
Beautiful car.....just bought one in the same color. Sir, any rubbing issues with the 325/30 on the rear? I'm going to need more than the stock 305 given a whipple install.....any feedback is greatly appreciated. Lastly, why did you part with your boosted red 350?.....it looked awesome 👌 ...
I just purchased my '20 GT350 2 months ago from a car collector with ~1,400 miles so I was curious to run a search on this forum (just joined) to see what an established/well respected Automotive enhancement shop would say (individual dyno #s are interesting but you have a much larger sample...
Yes, this was known as a Quadriga (4 horse rig). Tiger Woods remains the only athlete in the world to top $1B in earnings. The 2 greatest Roman Chariot Masters, which lived ~ 100 yrs apart) smoked EVERYONE back then & even today in earnings. Scorpus was the 1st GREAT Chariot Master whom died at...
